Hey all,
Trying to diagnose a problem here. I upgraded my RAM from 8 GB to 4 GB tonight. Got it all seated and went to turn on my CPU. The post beeps but nothing is ever displayed on my monitor. My motherboard (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138355) displayed an error "AE" and then an error "45". I've done some extensive web searching but can't really figure out what this stuff means. These codes aren't listed in my mobo's manual and I'm at a loss. I tried putting my old RAM back in with no luck. Double checked all plugs and connections with no luck. Tried seating my RAM in different slots on the mobo but it's a no go. I can't even imagine what the problem is other than my mobo bugged out when I swapped RAM. Any suggestions?
